# qemu-static

The purpose of this project is to build a highly compatible QEMU binary package

for linux to use with Zig testing.

Zig needs a very recent QEMU version, sometimes unreleased commit-revs, and

sometimes with custom patches. For this reason, distro-based QEMU packages are

unsuitable.

The overall strategy is to use Alpine Linux to host a QEMU build and link

statically to all possible libraries.

It is a non-goal to build QEMU with all features enabled.

It is a non-goal to build older versions of QEMU.

## build docker image

```

docker build --tag qemu .

```

## run container, save ID, copy artifact(s)

```

mkdir ../artifact

docker run -it --cidfile=qemu.cid qemu true

docker cp "$(cat qemu.cid):work/artifact/." ../artifact/.

```

## review final artifact(s)

```

ls -al ../artifact/

```

## cleanup container, ID-file, and image

```

docker container rm $(cat qemu.cid)

rm qemu.cid

docker image rm qemu

```

## really, really cleanup docker

```

docker system prune --force

```
